本研究同時考量公司治理與資訊揭露兩個構面探討是否對於公司募集權益資金成本有所影響。
本研究實證樣本為我國517家上市公司2005年至2009年的資料。結果發現，公司治理因子（獨立董監事、董監事股權質押、監察人占董事會），獨立董監事和監察人占董事會越高，權益資金成本越低，董監事股權質押則與權益資金成本呈顯著正相關。資訊揭露對於權益資金成本的影響上，未達統計上的顯著，若進一步區分資訊揭露程度下降（DISDOWN）與資訊揭露程度上升（DISUP）後對權益資金成本有顯著影響。

The study considers both corporate governance and information disclosure to explore their impact on cost of equity capital.
The empirical sample consists of 517 listed companies from 2005 to 2009 data. The results showed that corporate governance factors（ratio of independent board members, ratio of directors and supervisors’ stock pledge, ratio of supervisor/board）all are significantly influence the cost of equity capital. Information disclosure does significantly influence the cost of equity capital. After further classifying the information disclosure into up-status and down-status, information disclosure become significantly influence cost of equity capital.
